sewer election Malign (LP, £18.95)

label: ideal recordings

'Malign' is a hopeless, melancholic and depressive record. If you had any hopes for the world, 'Malign' will erase them. It's real, honest and dark negative energies stuck on tape. featuring never ending bad vibe guitar melodies, noise, field recordings and tapes, 'Malign' is for everyone not into being comfortable. Dan Johansson has never been as minimal as here. His music has echoes of the NYC downtown music scene of the '60s, post-war sound art from Germany and pre-war noise from Scandinavia.
